Here’s an important concept to understand concerning soil organic that I’m just now beginning to understand myself. Below is a short video that’s definitely worth watching….Here’s the gist of what it’s gonna tell you……..

Two major groups of microbes in the soil are “bacteria” and “fungi”. Both participate in the process of decomposing organic matter….but the end result is much different from one to the other as it concerns the amount of soil organic matter being produced. The total amount of biomass is not what matters in the end….it’s the amount of lipids or “fat” in the biomass that matters…..along with the carbon to nitrogen ratio.

Just be sure to watch this video and it’ll explain it better than I can….. It’s only 14 minutes….Watch it 2 or 3 times if you have to in order to understand what the guy is saying. I feel like this is something very important for everyone to understand………
